<!-- InstanceBeginEditable name="maincontent" --><b>In addition to their Major, members of the Science College are enrolled in a Minor in Multidisciplinary Studies in Science</b>. Our enrollment has increased from 12 students in 1979 to the current number of 65 students. The College accepts approximately 20 new students every year. 
<p>The College is  a place where students share a physical space, a building, desks, and computers. It also provides an opportunity for students to get together informally. </p>
<p>In Science College, students will gain an understanding of several areas of science, while specializing in whichever one they choose. Curricular structures frequently restrict students to a single discipline. To help counteract excessive specialization, the Science College has designed a series of courses to show what practicing physicists think about physics; what mathematicians do when they are thinking mathematics: &mdash; not &ldquo;an introduction to&rdquo;, but &ldquo;the state of the art&rdquo;. The College provides an opportunity for students to become acquainted with science as practiced and understood by scientists today. Its curriculum is planned to fulfill the primary goals of the College<br />
&mdash; to provide an opportunity for experience in a research environment, for thinking about the nature of science, and for becoming aware of the style and content of the various scientific disciplines. In Science College, students have the opportunity to work individually with active research scientists. This is done through a program of directed or independent study in each undergraduate year which enables them to undertake or participate in projects of discovery in a variety of different areas of scientific endeavour. Most students are co-authors of a paper in a science journal on receiving their BSc. Students of the College will also be provided with an opportunity to consider the nature of science. The College offers courses in the intellectual and social context of science. Designed specifically for College students, these courses raise questions of broad interest to scientists and presume an understanding of the subject matter of science itself.</p>
<p>Science College also offers assistance with students' writing projects. <a href="http://ianferrier.com">Ian Ferrier</a> is available&nbsp; Wednesdays 1- 5 PM and by <a href="mailto:IanFerrier@videotron.ca">email</a>.</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0;">&nbsp;</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0;">Science College Curriculum<br />
  The Minor in Multidisciplinary Studies in Science,  consists of 30 of the 90 credits normally required for a BSc degree. These courses have been developed <span style="font-weight: bold">specifically</span> for the College with the intention of providing a unique, integrated program of education in science. In addition to completing the core curriculum, students are responsible for satisfying their particular degree requirements by completing a departmental Honours, Specialization, or Major program leading to a BSc or BA (Psychology-cognitive science).</p>
<p><span style="font-style: italic">Performance Requirement</span><br />
  Students in the College must obtain a minimum grade of &ldquo;B-&rdquo; in all courses offered by the College.<br />
      <br />
      SCOL 270 SCOL 290, 390 SCOL 490*<br />
      12 Chosen from SCOL 350***; SCOL 360***; LBCL 291**, 292**<br />
      *After consultation with the College, this course may be replaced by BIOL 490, CHEM 450, or PSYC 495.<br />
      **Only one of these courses may be taken.<br />
      ***This course may be repeated twice for credit in this program, provided the subject matter is different<br />
      each time. In special circumstances and with permission of the College, a repeat of this course may be<br />
      replaced by a science course at the 300 level or higher outside the student&rsquo;s program.<br />
      NOTE: Students who have taken BIOL 490, CHEM 450, or PSYC 495 are not required to take SCOL 490.</p>
